In my post on the ferries a couple weeks ago, I did not mention the company name but since they have been named by others, I would agree with those posters who say Smiths is very unreliable (luggage for Roadtown and West End all piled together creating havoc for passengers going to the different stops, waiting on the ferry at the end until luggage was all taken off and we had to wait longer to disembark because there was a ferry ahead of us unloading - even though we had been scheduled to leave before them but we were late getting away).

I bought a ticket with them because there was no line up at their counter -- now I know why.

When you arrive at the dock size up the situation by looking at schedules, look at what boats are tied up at the dock and how many people are mulling around waiting.
